About

Summer Squash

It’s a pretty good thing that summer squash is so darn versatile—it’s one of the best producing vegetables during the farm season! Late spring through early fall this cucurbit is cranking! The most common types of summer squash are zucchini and pattypan squash. They all taste very similar and can be used interchangeably throughout recipes. Think moist muffins, hearty stews, squash noodles, stir fries, coleslaws, fritters, pizza, pasta and more! The possibilities are endless with this mild tasting yet diverse vegetable.
